Cowboys-falcons head to head some AJC stuff

Nevermind.

Where exactly on the Atlanta-Journal Constitution did writer's say we didn't have a chance, we had marginal talent and Matt Ryan was a future Hall of Famer?

2009 Dallas Cowboys will be competitive in every game they play this year and it would be extremely foolish to think we don't have a chance of winning any game we play in, this even includes the game against the New Orlean Saints.

Weekend Predictions: Falcons, Jackets and Phillips (oh my)
7:39 pm October 22, 2009, by Jeff Schultz

If we have learned anything in sports, it’s that it’s all about talent evaluation, which tells you why the Falcons are thriving with Matt Ryan and the Dallas Cowboys are too often flailing with Tony Romo and Steve Phillips is sitting in that special corner of what-were-you-thinking hell, because, like, dude, I know every general can’t resist the scrappy overachieving infielder once in a while and running the New York Mets can fry the mere mortal’s braincells but did you really mean to firebomb your life over the Mark Lemke of female interns?


Here's Brooke Hundley as she was working her way up the ESPN foodchain to Steve Phillips.
The Falcons have done almost everything right in the last 22 months. The Cowboys haven’t quite done everything wrong. It just seems that way.

Jerry Jones has picked the wrong players. He has picked the wrong coaches. He certainly picked the wrong surgeon of cheekology for his last nip-tuck.

About the only thing Falcons owner Arthur Blank probably would want from Jones would be the cash register receipts being generated by his new House of Gluttony, Cowboys Stadium (which is still without naming rights, as the Federal Reserve pulled out two weeks ago when the Cowboys had to rally to beat the Chiefs).

Falcons-Cowboys? This one’s pretty easy to evaluate. Dallas actually has some talent. Problem is everybody too often is running in the wrong direction. Think panic. Think brain melt. Think Phillips running head first into a wall. Again. The only thing I can’t figure out is why I’m getting four points to play with?

Take them. You won’t need them. Falcons over Cowboys.

Actually, I edited it.

Too early in the morning for the nonsense and I'm still drinking my first cup of coffee..

 

[theebs]

nevermind.

 

[Maikeru-sama]

what nonsense? What did I say that needed to be edited?

I am tired of the guy questioning everything I say. I am constantly putting up audio and video stuff so usually I have a source for what I am talking about, yet everytime I make a comment on something I have to have proof.

Its annoying. this is a forum not a courtroom.

That's not true and you know it.

They didn't. Well perhaps in the OP's overactive imagination.

I don't understand the mentality of "disrespect" when this franchise is one game over five hundred and hasn't won a playoff game in over 12 years.

2009 Dallas Cowboys will be competitive in every game they play this year and it would be extremely foolish to think we don't have a chance of winning any game we play in, this even includes the game against the New Orlean Saints.

That's about the best way to describe the team. Capable of beating pretty much anyone and equally capable of losing to anyone as well. Usually that kind of Jeckyl and Hyde team is at five hundred when the dust settles and is scratching their heads in disbelief wondering what went wrong.

Exactly.

So when you post stuff on the forum, be it an article, vid, audio, or an opinion, you should expect to be challenged on it...and not get pissy every time someone questions the validity.

There was nothing wrong with Mike's response...especially considering the link you posted didn't show where you got your info from.

You posted a stats link. There was nothing pertaining to where you got your opinion. I actually posted the blog where you got your info from.

overactive imagination? really?

ok. I will just ask you for all my opinions and thoughts on the team from now on, you have all the answers.

 

[Maikeru-sama]

Now I have to prove that to you too?

You don't have to prove anything to me.

The only thing that vaguely comes to mind is when you put up video from those fantastic interviews Bill Parcells did with Babe.

I never even questioned whether Bill Parcells had made the comment about this being the most difficult place he ever coached, I just said I never knew he said that and would love to see the video.

And I thanked you for those.

I think you are one of the better posters here (heck, I was one of the people that wanted you to come back in the "Come back Theebs thread") but sometimes you get offended a little too easy.

If I offended you are you perceive that I follow you around, questioning everything you post, I apolgize.

How strange to see this kind of tone from the hometown media.

Where in the link you provided did it talk about Romo to the CFL?

"It's not Atlanta journalist's job to be objective about the hometown team. They give you the hometown spin - and if you don't like it, that's tough."

(No I don't have a link or anything to corroborate)

and everytime I have an opinon, the guy looks for sources. It gets old.

I said in my first post I was reading the ajc. I didnt say here are the articles. The thread title was the head to head stats matchup. I was assuming we were adults and could go to the paper and read it.

And I dont get pissy everytime, that is BS from you, I was speaking to one person not you and an annoying thing that happens constantly.
